After Tee and I got home from a local car show today.... (I did NOT enter; kinda misty out; was gonna drive LUCKY but battery was dead this morning, so I drove BLUE up there ~ NUFF said).... anyhow when I got home I decided to read my book and try to understand what this code reader did. I went to LUCKY first and plugged 'er up and set the reader to Chrysler products and began the search. Absolutely NO CODES came up.... wondered IF I might find something why my battery was dead... with NO codes... must just be the battery.
Then... I took it over to BLUE, hooked 'er up and WHAT ~ To MY SURPRISE, it read you have the wrong oil in the engine. WOW, did NOT know this tool would know that.... YOU see I used Mobil 1 but used 5W30 instead of 5W20 as I had about 10 quarts left from a previous car and because it was BLUE and NOT one of our good cars thought ~ "What the hey!" That is the ONLY error it showed on Blue, checked engine, transmission and ABS system. Then as I was scrolling through the options it showed I have 86.5% of a full tank of gas ~ Cool... it showed what the idle was set at 633RPMs, read out some other things I did not understand... but I'll read up on those.
Then getting REALLY BRAVE......
Over to the DEMON I went ~ kinda knew this should be INTERESTING!!!
AND..... Boy O Boy.... was it.... Had immediate codes post up; believe FOUR IN ALL.... did NOT write these down.... BECAUSE I DID NOT WANT TO KNOW!
(For anyone that doesn't know the DEMON IS a Lousianna Flood Car that was down for a whole year just trying to get someone to repair it.) We look at the DEMON this way....it it STARTS & MOVES ~ LEAVE THAT ONE ALONE ~ LOL ~
